Champions Dub

Where are all the champions
They used to come around
Where are all the champions
They're nowhere to be found

Hey Driver

Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Thumb in the air on the side of the road
Good work, never comes easy
Hey driver to the top of the world

Threw my life over my, my shoulder with confidence
And here I come

Westbound leave the motor running
Cause I'm on the run
In this crowded world
I'll be high waiting when the last train comes

Dark skies, I feel my heels burning
False high 'til the end of the road
No doubt I've got a lot of learning
Hey Driver to the top of the world

Threw my life over my, my shoulder with confidence
And here I come

Westbound leave the motor running
Cause I'm on the run
In this crowded world
I'll be high waiting when the last train comes

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey

Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Thumb in the air on the side of the road
Good work never comes easy
Hey driver to the top of the world

Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Time stops at the end of the road
The big life, big deals, beginnings
Hey driver to the top of the world

Hey driver to the top of the world (8x)

Lookin' down from the skybox
Watching the whole block
Throw em in the air
And you hate me now
Not getting your truce
Gettin' loose
Like the noose on my na na na na neck
I'm bringing the next suburban curse
If i make it, baby, you can drive my hearse
We're getting close, man, toe to to, man
Here we go

(chorus)
Here we go
Never gonna see me broken
Here we go
They're never gonna see me broken
Here we go
Gonna keep my eyes open
So tell me who do you think you're defeating?

Looking out from the cell block
Watching the door lock
Throw 'em in the air
Cause i hate you now
Expect nothing less
Just confess
You cut me off at my na na na na neck
No, I won't beg
I'm older now
Won't sit here, never making a sound
We're getting close, toe to toe
Here we go

(chorus)

(bridge)
not broken (not broken)
not broken (not broken)
not broken (not broken)
not broken (not broken)

Lookin down from the skybox
Watching the whole block
Throw 'em in the air
And you hate me now
Not getting your truce
Gettin' loose
Like the noose on my na na na na neck
I'm bringing the next suburban curse
If i make it, baby, you can drive my hearse
We're getting close, toe to toe
Here we go

Here we go
Never gonna see me broken
Here we go
Never gonna see me broken
Here we go
Gonna keep my eyes open
Here we go
Gonna stay strong I've spoken
Here we go
Never gonna see me broken
Here we go
Never gonna see me broken
Here we go
Gonna keep my eyes open
So tell me who do you think you're defeating?

Here we go
Never gonna see me broken
Here we go
They're never gonna see me broken
Here we go
Gonna keep my eyes open
So tell me who do you think you're defeating?
Tell me who do you think you're defeating
'till you eat out your heart still beating

Who do you think you're defeating?

Beware

Cut the engine when I'm all revved up
Pull the rug beneath my feet
Pull the trigger when I'm all wound up
Then you turn your back on me
Then you say that I'm talking too much
but I'm just talking to my self
And whether you like it or not you'll never ask for help

Chorus
Breathing for you
Can't be all in my head
Changing scares you
This is all in your head
Beware I swear I will be waiting there (2x)

Draw the battlelines and back me down
to the corner with such ease
Turn the knife til I'm so worked up
all I do is aim to please
The power balance is now upside down
with a sudden change of gears
Every single word is now washed up
with your crocodile tears

Chorus

GO!

The setting sun crumbles in the distance
Feeble words meeting new resistance
Tired games, do they make a difference
Tired games, tired games

Beware I swear I will be waiting there (4x)

Commitment

Under the gun to wear my teenage aggression
Tell everyone it's the high school's newest succession
We didn't know what he was getting us into
Look out below, below

(Chorus)
Come blazing your guns, woah
You write us off when times are rough, baby
I couldn't say it enough, no
Your commitment's so dangerous

Under the scope, the new craze of the paid and the faceless
Packaged and sold by the gross to the young and the tasteless
Does anyone know where they go when they find the replacements?
Look out below, below

(chorus)

I can't stand the crossroads, no
Turn around when the times are rough baby
I couldn't say it enough
Your commitment's so dangerous

Hours and hours of stipulation
Slowly adding up to manipulation
We bought into the presentation
Rock 'n' Roll and speculation
Throw your pitch and show your numbers
Dropping names of the people that you're working under

I'll keep the miles you, you can have the cash
Here's your word you can have it back

(chorus)

I can't stand the crossroads, no
Turn around when the times are rough, baby
I couldn't say it enough, no
Your commitment's so dangerous (3x)
Your commitment

Atari

You started off, break out the ammunition
If not enough, you point at my friends
Grabs the keys and
Tells me that she's out of patience
And tells her friends what a loser I've been
The walls go up, the telephone is waiting
To be shut off, it if happens again
I've been building up or just been overrating
Time and my sanity spent

Chorus
I don't want to stand here and say I'm sorry
I just want to drink beer and play atari
You can tell your mom how I make my money
I don't care

Well, later on my clothes are in the front yard
It takes a man to honor the mess
I gotta laugh thanks for the new selection
I got your dad's John Tesh

Chorus

Bridge
The world outside is cold, man,
It's gone forever
I get high in hindsight it's getting better
Save your breath, your threats won't hurt
And I don't care

Beautiful
Twisted
And beautiful
I'm wasted and miserable
Take it away

Chorus, Bridge (2x)

I don't care (6x)

Sunday Afternoon

sunday afternoon you wont be perfect you wont be pure
And monday asking you
Why did you, how could you play me for the fool

Oh theres no simple answer
Oh theres no reason at all

I turned to find the truth
The closer i got the farther i got from you
Cause i burned myself on you
How could you, why did you play me for a fool

Oh theres no simple answer
Hey theres no reason at all

Must have been a beautiful daydream
You didnt come home till three
Must've been a hell of a joyride
You didnt once think of me
Must have been a lot of people
Saying you took more then you gave
But what do you take to take the pain away
And what do you take to make it all go away

You tore ever stich
You bait and you switch
You told me you'd change
you'd change everything
Everything

come chase away the blues
of the gloom of my room

Oh theres no simple answer
Oh theres no reason at all
And i know i got no simple answer
Hey, i'm not blaming you all

I've heard your having the time of your life
Wish you were here
Having it with me tonight
Everything would be alright
Come on, come on help me make it through the time
Oh the time of your life

Something To Believe

Popped up this morning just a little off center
God fearing world, I'm so afraid to enter
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do
Looking back, looking over my shoulder
Still agnostic, every day it gets older
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do
Holy books, so many flaws no answers
Believe in him or fear him like a cancer
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do
Bible banging, slanging Jesus at my door
'hey son, this is something you can't afford'
Haven't decided
Haven't decided...

Chorus:
Oh give me something to believe
So many down on their knees
It baffles me, baffles me
Oh give me something to believe
So many down on their knees..
It baffles me, baffles me

Popped up this morning like nipples in the winter
God fearing world, I'm so afraid to enter
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do
After life, after death uncertain
Choose your side before they're droppin' the curtain
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do
Where do I go for my inspiration?
Go with the flow, with the standing ovation?
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do
Standing idle, waiting for doomsday
Damned if you do, damned if you don't say
Haven't decided
Haven't decided what to do

I learned my lesson from history
I'm not claiming to be
Jesus Christ and company
I am needy
I'm a thief
I'm not claiming to have
Role model qualities
But here's a lesson
Simplicity
From a poor boy who don't
Who don't believe in destiny
Be good to another
Set yourself free
All the pieces they...
Fall together

Chorus to Fade

You Weren't There

I don't need your advice
I am the device
That you are living through

How long can this last
It's all in the past
And I am living proof

Chorus
You gave it away, Maybe I'm not old enough
You gave it away Maybe I wasn't cool enough
You gave it away Maybe you weren't there enough
There enough
Fuck it, come on

The greatest device
Branches collide
The overcast agrees

The rotten fruit
That you prosecute is leaving the family tree

Chorus

You plant the seed
Then you take control
Your grip has taken its toll

Chorus

Blame

If it's happening, then it's happened to more than you
Hesitate to call you back, thirty-first and rent's due
If it's happening, then it's happened to more than you
What is it, what's haunting you?

Chorus:
Now you're blaming all your friends again (friends again)
Dead broke and dodging the heat
Now you're blaming all your friends again (friends again)
Here's my last smoke, just hit me back
Just hit me back

If it's happening, then it's happened to more than you
You got your second DUI, again the lawyer's got to save you
If it's happening, then it's happened to more than you
Your choices are choosing you

Chorus

Don't feed me your excuse again
Cause I just spit it up
Don't feed me your excuse again
Again

If it's happening, then it's happened to more than you
I know you saw your mother die, can't imagine how that hurt you
If it's happening, then it's happened to more than you
Stepmother stepped over you

Now you're blaming all your friends again (friends again)
Dead broke and dodging the heat
Now you're blaming all your friends again (friends again)
Here's my last breath, just hit me back
Just hit me back, hey, just hit me back

South Union

I left you in the morning
Still drunk on melodrama,
You're so pretty so natural
but I had to salvage honor
.
Down your spiral staircase
The television I bought you,
Took a deep breath
Of your endless love perfume.

The carnage that the storm left
Six inches on the ground
The south side of Chicago
Stands eerily so sound.

I looked up at your window
Hand out as if to touch you;
You used to be so perfect
Why did I ever meet you?

These Days

Medicine And Gasoline

It's getting quiet here again
For a minute let's pretend
When I disappear the world stops turning
Getting hassled by my friends
They're telling me I'm changing for the worst

(Chorus)
Another episode is still pretending
I'm growing tired of holding out
Another open road it's never ending tiiiiiime
Here's to you, the good life and me
Here's to handshakes and losers
Medicine and Gasoline
Here's to you, the good life to be
The dial tones, the misery and me

All the questions are the same
Won't you question whose to blame
Or ask me when my fire stops burning
Throwing more than just the game
Spitting back my answers well rehearsed

(Chorus) 2x
